levels

At Soccer KEMistry, every athlete progresses through our proven development system—one skill level at a time. These levels, called KEMist Levels, reflect a player’s ability to perform key technical skills consistently and confidently.

 

As your athlete advances, their shirt color represents the level they’ve earned on the field. It’s a fun, visual way to track growth and celebrate progress—because here, development is more than just drills.

 

It’s measurable, intentional, and earned.

Since founding Soccer Kemistry in 2006, thousands of data points have been collected from the training sessions that focus on dribbling, juggling, moves, passing/receiving, and shooting. Over the years, players have been tracked at different ages and skill levels while performing these drills. Because of this, Soccer KEMistry now understands what typical progress looks like from age U9 to U13. This means your child can be measured right now and also predict what they need to work on to keep improving. It’s a proven, data-backed approach to player development.
